If they really had the time, they might as well build a smelting plant right there in the Kuiper Belt and manufacture a production line.
The problem was that the Kuiper Belt was too far from Blue Star. Even flying at full power, the Hope would need decades to get there.
In Mo Jingchun's view, rather than spend time sending a ship there, they might as well spend even more time developing a more advanced spacecraft and increasing its speed.
A few decades would be more than enough for technology to advance to an unimaginable level.
Ten years ago, no one could have imagined that humanity would quietly enter the Interstellar Era by today, or that humans would have a spacecraft of their own!
Even though people still had no idea what the appearance of the Forward meant, that did nothing to hinder the advancement of human technology.
Nanomaterials, Artificial Intelligence, Controlled Nuclear Fusion...
Board by board, they had pieced together the Forward, a ship humanity had never even dreamed of.
Carrying the seeds of humanity, the Forward and its entire crew would continue sailing onward, bearing humanity's fearless spirit in the face of hardship.
No one knew where the Forward would end up.
From the moment it was designed, it had no destination.
The Space Shuttle had landed safely. As long as the scientific team didn't get too reckless, the risk had been reduced to a minimum.
The most dangerous moment was the landing.
"Zero, report to me immediately if anything happens."
"Sure thing, boss."
Mo Jingchun nodded and smiled. "Release our probe robots."
"Heh, boss, I've been waiting for you to say that."
At a thought from Zero, two Space Shuttles on Mars opened a hole just twenty centimeters in diameter in their undersides.
